Default how do i put a B16 in a 87 CRX (Not an Si?)

I'm doing some research on the internet for putting a B16 in my 87 CRX. I have the 1.5L non-fuel injected motor. It's a carb running motor? How major of a swap is this? How bad is the wiring compared to a EFI one? I got a guy offering 500CND's to change the wirng over for me? WIll the wiring harness I have in the car right now adapted to the one for the EFI in my year? I'm totally lost. Hasport has wiring specs for an Si but not carb running. Can anyone help me out? Send me anything you got. Thanks!!!

Well, SCC had a great write up not too long ago. I was actually going to do that same swap, but the wiring was too much. You're going to have to get the wiring harness off of an injected car; as well as a new fuel pump.

i would call hasport and ask their opinion but from my understanding you need the whole si fuel system. that means the tank, pump, and lines. there might be a way around it but i dont know it. ask hasport.
